A 'Conjumble' of Thoughts




Do you ever feel like you just have a bunch of thoughts bouncing around inside your brain, and you can't think of what to think of those thoughts?
I know I do. So, I decided to make a mess and dump some of mine all over the place on this piece of paper.

Who knows what we'll find in this hodgepodge?

Lately I've been wondering if we have complete control over what enters our minds.
People say Satan or God can "Put" thoughts in our minds, so do we even get to choose what pops in our heads?
 I've been doing a bit of praying, pondering, and primitively speculating, and I've come to a couple of conclusions:
 We decide what kind of thoughts we have. Heavenly Father and Satan both have thoughts ready for you to accept, but ultimately we are the selectors of our own thoughts.
 Picture this: Imagine your brain with two doors on either side of it. Both doors lead to the same room, and in that room is a little person. We'll call him Agency. On the outside of both doors are two other people. One is dressed in white and carries a bag full of eternal love. We'll call Him God. The other is dark and carries a bag full of many deceiving lies. Let's call him Satan.
Both are knocking on their doors wanting that little person to let them in so they can dump their bags into the room. The only one who can decide which door Agency will open, is YOU.
But the room is never really empty. You are constantly directing Agency to open a door. You can only let one door be opened at a time though. God and His bag of blessings can't be in the room at the same time as Satan and his bag of deceit.

Scientists can't figure out where the origin of our thoughts come from, but it is my belief that they come from the sources of Good and Evil, and it is our choice who and which we allow to enter.

The power of our thoughts is startlingly immense, for once we decide who will be inside 'the room of our brain', either God, or Satan, will start talking with Agency and begin to have a tremendous influence on him. That then determines our actions and actions determine who we become.

So! That sometimes seemingly insignificant 'conjumble of thoughts' hoping around in our brain are really the deciding factors of our character. That's why it is crucial that we choose to let God be in our thoughts. Let us strive to constantly put our focus on doing His will, and the 'bag of blessings' that await will be glorious indeed.
